Scholarship / Chemical engineering - achievements and career goals. [2]
This semester I took part in the integrated project in which I had my first true experience applying principles of chemical engineering. This really intrigued me as I had found a practical application for chemical engineering in today's world. The major project that we carried out is a hydraulic jack that is operated using a chemical reaction. It helped me to develop my soft skills especially leadership, structural problem-solving, critical observation and communication skills, as we encountered a lot of problems along the way as well as having to cooperate with each other for long period of time to meet the deadlines. With all the effort that we had made, we achieved a Gold Award. This scheme gave me an informative insight into different kinds of problems that engineers must solve.
As a future chemical engineer, communication skill will allow me to be more productive while structured problem-solving skill would help me to solve problems that are highly complex and open- ended. Companies need critical thinkers so critical observation skill will bring a fresh perspective and offer intuitive solutions and ideas to improve the process. Plus, leadership will allow me to learn how to manage people, motivate a team, and take on more responsibility.
